EXPLORE SUSTAINABLE SOLUTIONS AT ISPO MUNICH

Jan 29, 2019

INVISTA is exhibiting products featuring EcoMade Technology at ISPO, the world’s largest multi-segment trade fair focused on sports, which starts on 3rd February 2019 in Munich, Germany. COOLMAX® EcoMade fiber and THERMOLITE® EcoMade fiber and insulation are made from certified amounts of recycled resources such as plastic bottles, to offer the Active/Outdoor apparel industry a more sustainable alternative to virgin fibers.

Sustainability Without Compromise

EcoMade technology solutions offer the same features, benefits, and quality as their virgin polymer equivalent, but will meet consumer expectations for more environmentally responsible products. EcoMade technology gives new life to recycled resources by transforming them into fibres through a controlled process. This means less waste is going into landfills, which appeals to millennials and environmentally-conscious consumers.

Many Options to Choose From

INVISTA is your one-stop shop for performance fibers that offer enhanced sustainability to the active/outdoor industry. EcoMade technology is available for LYCRA® T400® and LYCRA® Dual Comfort technologies, as well as for COOLMAX® and THERMOLITE® brand products. This enables INVISTA customers to capitalize on each brand’s global awareness and reputation for high quality and performance to help drive sales downstream.
